These Are The Most Popular Amiibo Figures

Briefly: During an investor’s call earlier today, the big N revealed its list of the most popular Amiibo figures to date. There are really no surprises to be found here, and only the common figures even made the list (probably because there are a ton of people who have never even seen certain figures in real life). Of course, our buddy Link was the most popular character, and Mario himself was right behind him. Here’s the whole list:

Link
Mario
Pikachu
Kirby
Samus
Yoshi
Zelda
Donkey Kong
Peach
Luigi

Nice to see that Luigi made the list (though he was last of the top 10), though I wonder if that would be the case if all of the figures were readily available. Interestingly enough, Nintendo noted that 63 percent of Amiibo sales have been from North America, which may explain the photos of fully-stocked Amiibo shelves from everywhere else in the world. Europe sits at 23 percent, Japan at 11, and just 3 percent for Australia.

Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata also revealed that in the near future Amiibo figures will unlock timed trials of Wii U Virtual Console games, and that those Amiibo cards that were rumoured a few months back are still in the works.

I don’t know about you guys, but I’m addicted to the damned things… I own the complete top 10, and a whole lot more. Which figures are you still hunting for? Are you down with the Amiibo Cards? Sound out below!
